Fischer’s Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze in rural Callaway County near Jefferson City offers a variety of family fun.

In addition to a 10-acre corn maze and a 24-acre pick-your-own pumpkin patch, the farm’s attractions also include a 250-bushel corn box (a large sand box with corn instead of sand), hay rides, a smaller straw maze, farm animals and two recently-acquired Clydesdales.

“You can’t hardly get the kids out of the corn box,” said Kim Fischer, who owns the farm with her husband, Jay Fischer.
